Facing Dream Busters

Posted On: June 28th, 2009 By: Jen Young

There are a lot of reasons why people discourage others from pursuing their dreams.  Many seem to be altruistic - an effort to protect someone from failure or pain.  But we can’t protect someone from the pain of life, and certainly not at the cost of their dreams.

Jesus did not get his identity from what people said about him, he got his identity from what the Father said about him!

All things are possible - so, do you believe?

Which Way to Run?

Posted On: June 17th, 2009 By: Donna Astern

God knew that after 400 years of slavery, the Israelites were not ready to enter their Promised Land. They needed to have a new perspective  of who they were and of the God who had delivered them.  In His mercy, with the cloud by day and the fire by night, He led them along an alternate route, rather than a direct one.

After a time, they grew discouraged in the wilderness because of the way. (Num 21:4) Their trek was longer and more challenging than they had expected. They fell into ingratitude and grumbling towards the man they had once praised for his vision and leadership.  Mutinous plans to return to Egypt were formed, but God squashed the rebellion. He intended that they move forward into their inheritance as a sovereign nation. continue reading

The Power of Decision

Posted On: June 3rd, 2009 By: Donna Astern

Are you on hold? Wishing and hoping?

What kind of life are you waiting to have?

“Someday my prince will come.”
“Someday my ship will come in.”
“Someday I will be happy.”
“I’m just waiting on God.”

Did that last statement bother you? Numerous people use that last one as an excuse for why they don’t have what they want now.

Do you want to be well? Slim? Happy? Prosperous? Powerful?

Saying you want it is only the tip of the iceberg. continue reading

Finding Encouragement

Posted On: May 20th, 2009 By: Donna Astern

It was a catastrophe.

David and his warriors returned to their home base at Ziklag and were shocked to discover that the city had been raided and burned and that all their wives and children were carried away captive. The men were in great anguish and, in their pain, blamed David and were ready to kill him.

David was greatly distressed. His own family had also been taken, and his life was now in danger from his own men. He was grieving and at a loss what to do.

At that point, David made the choice to strengthen himself in the Lord. He did not wallow in grief-stricken self-pity. As he stood alone, he turned to the One he knew to be a refuge in the day of trouble. He encouraged himself in the Lord.

Why was David alone able to find strength and encouragement? continue reading

Help Wanted: Your Ministry

Posted On: May 17th, 2009 By: Jen Young

God has set leadership in place so that all believers would be “equipped for the work of the ministry”.  While most are not called to “pulpit” ministry, all are called to minister one to another with the gifts God has given.

Ministry and service is extending yourself for the benefit of someone else.

Whether regardless of a primary to call to public ministry, business, family, etc., all believers are to live balanced lives that include service and ministry to the body of believers!

Permission to Rest Outside of Tahiti

Posted On: May 11th, 2009 By: Donna Astern

In these times of hurry and over-commitment, we might rationalize that we just can’t afford to step away simply to unwind and recharge. Even though God does not get tired, He set the precedent for us by resting one day after working for six days on Creation. The commandment to rest one day a week was important enough to be included in the initial Ten. Rather than a heavy obligation, this commandment is a mercy gift to us from Him. God also gave Israel holidays (from “holy days”) as times for celebration, worship, and family.

It’s not enough to just rest from physical work; we also require mental, emotional, and spiritual refreshing.see full article
